The code technology—known as QR, or quick response—acts like a gateway allowing anyone with a camera phone to easily step between the digital and physical worlds.

For me it's a really tough decision between Blogger and Wordpress. I use blogger for personal stuff, and get lots of traffic thanks to being Less Fat and Riding Bike (chubbysuperbiker.com). It's been good to me, and been a lot of fun in the process.
Yet, there are nagging things I think Google could do a lot better. Like, Picasa integration - make it a little (lot) easier for me to just plop in photos from my 25 gig of Picasa space. And youtube. I mean, it's easy and powerful enough for me to just edit the code - but when I'm doing personal blogging, generally I'm going to be lazy about it. Then there's WordPress, which is what I use for work and is fantastic.
My only drawback for personal is that I'm lazy when I'm not at work - and Blogger is easier in that respect.

Building A Community Around Your Blog: Part 1. If you want your company to be known as an expert online you need to earn attention and credibility among the folks you want to engage with.

PR Professionals: How to Determine a Mom Blogger’s Influence Without Asking Her « Jennifer James Online. Yesterday my post, Why PR Professionals Shouldn’t Ask Mom Bloggers for Stats, got a lot of response from mom bloggers naturally because it is understandable to the community that asking for stats is borderline rude and also shows laziness because there are so many tools to determine a blogger’s influence that there is really no reason to ask; no reason to ask at all. Before I get into the tools to use, I want to emphasize to PR professionals that no list of numbers compares with actually reading mom blogs, meeting moms at conferences, conversing with mom bloggers on Twitter and simply sitting back and observing the community.
Nothing compares to getting to know mom bloggers and gleaning a true feel for a mom’s influence irrespective of stats. Nothing.
